When you're dealing with a rapper who likes to be called "the boss", it's safe to assume they don't have a problem with self-confidence. Rick "Rozay" Ross has spent the past eight years bigging up himself in song, reminding listeners of his apparent sexual prowess, extravagant (self-reported) earnings and rap-game influence as founder of the label Maybach Music Group. This is also a rapper who, on a song from his latest album, casually compares himself to David Koresh, the cult leader who died in the 1993 Waco siege after an FBI raid. Subtlety is not the name of his game.

Rather, Ross whips the crowd into a frenzy the moment he bounds onstage, thrusting his torso and hands forward in time to opener, The Boss. Donning his signature aviator sunglasses, he raps over a backing track during the verses, leaving the choruses to his frenetic hype man. While he's a charismatic performer, brimming with bravado and kinetic energy for the first half of his set, he holds back from connecting with the audience until, after the fourth song, he directly addresses the crowd, bellowing: "Can I get a Rozay?"

Ross blows through hits from past albums and mixtapes, covering ground from his breakout single Hustlin' to BMF to Stay Schemin', and his featured verse on Jay Z's Fuckwithmeyouknowigotit. Puffing and panting through simplistic rhyming schemes on other artists' tracks, he mostly highlights their lyrical dexterity. Whether holding his glittering chains and staring at a cardboard cut-out of himself positioned near the stage, or telling a woman in the audience that she's a "two-piece" and he's "looking for a dime-piece", Ross oozes self-confidence before substance. Haven't we all known bosses like that?
